From the Associate Pastor - October 28, 2010

As another year of Pumpkin Patch comes to a close, I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who volunteered to help make this the best patch ever. In the Purpose Driven Life series we just completed, the fifth week’s focus was on Ministry: You Were Shaped for Serving God. We saw that ministry of serving this past month as volunteers gave of their time to help on tours, working on week-ends, unloading pumpkin trucks, greeting the families, feeding animals, watering plants, spraying for ants, culling pumpkins, working in sales trailer, Granny’s Store, just to name a few. In Matthew 10:42 it says that “and if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is my disciple, I tell you the truth, he will certainly not lose his reward.” (NIV) I don’t believe we could count the number of “cups of cold water” given this past month but God saw each and every one.

Thank you again.
